Jaws of Stone

A bomb in limited.  Yet to prove itself in Constructed, but any card that can potentially kill multiple creatures in one sweep is worth looking at.  The main downside here is its dependence on Mountains, and most constructed decks use a lot of nonbasic lands and aren't multicolor.  It can also just finish off your opponent if you need it to.

Constructed- 3

Casual- 3.5

Limited- 4.5

Jaws of Stone
 
It's such a powerful effect, it almost makes me feel bad there's no such thing as a mono-red control deck... oh, wait, there was such a deck recently. If it ever makes a comeback, Jaws of Stone will probably be played as a powerful board control/finisher.
 
Constructed: 2/5
Casual: 3/5
Limited: 2/5

Jaws of Stone:

 

Constructed: Expensive, there are cheaper and better red removal spells out there.

 

Casual: Big burn spells are great.

 

Limited: Good card, if that is the only removal or direct damage than use it if playing heavy red.

 

Overall: Okay. Not anything to get overly excited about.

 

Constructed: 2

Casual: 3

Limited: 2
